Marcelo Caetano received the PhD degree in signal processing from UPMC Paris 6 University/IRCAM in 2011 under the supervision of Xavier Rodet, then head of the Analysis/Synthesis group at IRCAM. He was a postdoctoral fellow at FORTH (Greece), INESC TEC (Portugal), and ATIC-UMA (Spain). Between 2020 and 2023, Dr. Caetano was a Marie-Curie fellow with CIRMMT-McGill and CNRS-PRISM developing the MORPH project, which uses musical instrument sound morphing to investigate the perception of timbre and to allow composers and performers to explore sound morphing creatively. His research interests range from musical instrument sounds to music modeling, including analysis/synthesis for sound transformations and music timbre. In 2023, Dr. Caetano joined the Department of Music from the University of California San Diego (UCSD).
